1. (YOU MUST WRITE NOTES ON THIS QUESTION) “Why do some people have to be miserably poor in
order that others can be extravagantly rich? I speak for all the children in the world who don't even
have a piece of bread.” (Fidel Castro) My personal opinion on this statement, is most closely described
by:
a. Who cares what Castro said? He was an ideological dinosaur anyway.
b. Wealth and poverty are unrelated phenomena.
c. Well perhaps the rich should just stop all their charity and we’ll see where this leaves the
ungrateful poor.
d. Well on a simple technical level, the answer to this is poverty and wealth are both relative so
it’s just not possible for there to be someone rich without someone who is relatively poor.
e. I think this is the wrong question. The right question is: “How do we prevent people being
extravagantly rich while others are miserably poor?” Terms of use
